credit card company
What shows up on your credit report when you report your credit card lost/stolen?
For example, if the credit card company changes your account number and moves everything to a new account, does your credit report now say that the old account is closed and you just opened a new account? I’m trying to figure out if you lose your old credit history when you do this—-especially if this is an account you’ve had for a while, and therefore is one of your oldest accounts since alot of credit is based on how long you’ve had things.
What is the difference between a credit score and a credit report?
I did my research and I realized that i have a good credit report standing.
I only have 2 accounts that I am currently using.
Out of those two, for one I do have a balance but I always pay my bills on time except for two times when i was late because, the credit card company gave me the wrong due dates
They did remove the late fees however.
But 7 open in total.
5 unused
Two of them are sallie mae for school
and the other
1 for victorias secret- never used it. If I do use it I pay it once the bill comes
and the other two i dont plan on using.
Does that mean I have a bad credit score?

Who is responsible for credit card debt if somebody dies? Or does the company eat it?
Say somebody has X amount of credit card debt, then they die but still have that debt to the credit card company outstanding, what happens? Does the company have to write it off as bad debt or ? Perhaps the company can hit up that person’s estate. But let me pose another question then – what if that person’s estate does not have enough money to cover that credit card debt.
Will negotiating credit card debt hurt my credit score?
I've been unemployed for a couple months, and the credit card payments are starting to hurt.
If I negotiate with the credit card company to reduced my debt or monthly payment, will this somehow hurt my credit score.
I plan on refinancing my mortgage when I get another job, and I don't want my score to be hurt.
